Yes, I love books with lots of characters. I think that's why I loved the Potter books so much.
Putting a lot of characters in play definitely asks something of the reader, but I think the plot payoffs are more rewarding.
I usually don't like books with fewer than a dozen important characters. They don't suspend my disbelief. i.e. the world has LOTS of people in it, so books with very few characters usually feel super fake to me.
If you know anyone else who might like the book, please spread the word. :)
